10 Years Today

Brian and me -- our apartment, 1994

Brian and I met during the Fall of 1993 -- 16 years ago. He was 22, just out of college. I had barely turned 24. Within four months of knowing each other, I was packing up my apartment in Milwaukee, and moving to Chicago. I never looked back. We got married nearly six years later, on September 10, 1999. And, I've got to say, things have worked out pretty well. In fact, I couldn't be happier. Happy Anniversary, Brian!

God grief, has it really been that long?! I remember your apartment in Milwaukee... you at our wedding (pre-Brian)... your dad and the long-hair comments (I always liked Brian's hair)... so long ago, so far away. We were so young.
